10:56AM The store is very similar to iTunes. Same modal pop-overs. Pricing doesn't look too bad. The book page display is nice. You can turn pages slowly -- really slick looking page animation. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0315-rm-eng.jpg Σίγουρα δεν συγκρίνεται με την ασπρόμαυρη οθόνη του kindle

Απ' ότι βλέπω δεν ισχύουν οι τιμές που διέρρευσαν, υπάρχει ποικιλία τιμών στους τίτλους..

10:55AM Demo time. Steve is showing it off. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0314-rm-eng.jpg

10:53AM "Isn't that awesome? These guys only had two weeks. So we've seen some really great apps. Let me show you another... one of our apps. That's an ebook reader. Now Amazon has done a great job of pioneering this... we're going to stand on their shoulders for this. Our new app is called iBooks." http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0308-rm-eng.jpg

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0307-rm-eng.jpg http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0305-rm-eng.jpg

Jason Chen: And now, an eBook reader app. “Amazon’s done a great job of pioneering this technology with their ebook reader.” And now, a new app called iBooks. yeap, ευθεία αντιπαράθεση με την Amazon..

Δείχνει το kindle; http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0303-rm-eng.jpg

Καμιά ιατρική εφαρμογή δεν θα δούμε σήμερα; Πολλοί υποστήριζαν ότι το tablet θα απευθύνεται και σ' αυτόν τον τομέα..

Δεν θυμάμαι ποτέ να crashάρει τόσο συχνά το gizmodo και το engadget.. πρέπει να επικρατεί χαμός! 10:52AM Scott: "While we wait for those apps to come out, we can all run our existing apps... and that is the app story for the iPad." And Steve is back. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0302-rm-eng.jpg

10:49AM Finally, MLB.com... 10:50AM Chad Evans from MLB.com -- "We were excited to build something for the iPad. We had to create a whole new experience for this display."

10:49AM A handful of new touch controls. Graphics look smooth, fairly fast. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0290-rm-eng.jpg 10:49AM And that's it for EA. Really? Περισσότερα τον Μάρτιο :)

10:48AM Need for Speed Shift on screen. Looks pretty good. "Building for the iPad is a little different -- it's kind of like holding an HD display up to your face. It's really cool." http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0284-rm-eng.jpg http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0287-rm-eng.jpg Jason Chen: The game is also “fully touch enabled.” To see inside the car, just tap inside the car, and swipe up and down on the shifter to change gears, and tap on the mirror to look behind you. Jason Chen: EA says the first thing they wanted to check out was the device’s performance, and for that, Need For Speed. They’re showing off a BMW M3, which looks quite good (definitely better than the iPhone), but not as good as on a PC. It looks somewhere inbetween, which is kinda the point of the device. Though it’s closer to the iPhone. “It’s like holding an HD screen up to your face.”

10:46AM "Next up, EA." Of course! http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/appletablet/appletabletb390.jpg

10:45AM "Today I'd like to show you how brushes looks on the iPad." This is nice. Context menus for brush and color options. We're loving these new pop-over menus. No more diving! http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0273-rm-eng.jpg http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/appletablet/appletabletb384.jpg http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/appletablet/appletabletb383.jpg

10:44AM "Next is Brushes. It's an extremely popular app." Steve Sprang from Brushes is up. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0272-rm-eng.jpg

10:41AM "So Steve showed you the Times website, it's beautiful. Why did we come out here to develop a new app for the iPad? Our iPhone app has been downloaded 3m times. We wanted to create something special for the iPad." Jason Chen: Here’s the app. It’s very similar to the actual paper, but can skip around like on the iPhone version. The formatting is similar to a paper, and you can change the number of columns, resize text, flip through slideshows and go into landscape mode. http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/appletablet/appletabletb370.jpg AND, you can play a movie, like on the website. http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/appletablet/appletabletb376.jpg http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/appletablet/appletabletb374.jpg

Next up is New York Times. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0256-rm-eng.jpg Η συμμετοχή των ΝΥΤ αποτέλεσε το θέμα των τελευταίων ημερών.

10:39AM Showing off their FPS Nova. "I can slide the d-pad on the screen..." You can set up your own controls. New gestures for interacting with games. This isn't anything breathtaking just yet -- fairly standard graphics (though nice), nothing new in terms of interaction. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0255-rm-eng.jpg

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0250-rm-eng.jpg Εντυπωσιακό!

10:37AM "We're exciting about possibilities on this. So we invited some developers two weeks ago to see what they could create. We want to show you what they came up with. First, Gameloft." Mark Hickey from Gameloft is up. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0249-rm-eng.jpg

10:36AM "We think it's going to be another gold rush for devs. And of course every iPad comes with the app store on it." http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0241-rm-eng.jpg

10:36AM "We rewrote all of our apps for this display. the iPhone SDK supports development for this now... and we're releasing it today." http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0237-rm-eng.jpg Ώστε όταν κυκλοφορήσει να είναι ήδη όλα διαθέσιμα..

10:34AM Games look amazing. He's playing an OpenGLS title right now and it looks super smooth. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0228-rm-eng.jpg 10:35AM "So all of the iPhone apps will run on this. In fact when you buy it, download all the apps you have right onto the iPad. Now if the developer spends some time modifying their app, they can take full advantage of this display." http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0230-rm-eng.jpg Τελικά η προσαρμογή στην οθόνη θα χρειαστεί κάποια προσπάθεια..

10:33AM "Let's start with Facebook. It just works." He's showing off the non-pixel doubled version, a small app in the middle of the screen. It's kind of silly looking. A lone app in the center of a black screen. The scaled up app looks silly as well, especially in Facebook. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0219-rm-eng.jpg 10:33AM Gaming obviously will handle this better, but a text heavy app looks lonely or weirdly huge.

10:31AM "Now, let's go back to software. We've seen some great built in apps. Let's talk about third party. Let's talk about the app store." Scott Forstall is out! 10:31AM "Morning. The app store has been a huge success. Already our customers have downloaded 3b apps." 10:31AM Can run all iPhone apps unmodified out of the box. 10:32AM "We can also pixel double and run the apps full screen." http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/01/apple-creation-0215-rm-eng.jpg Το οικοσύστημα είναι ήδη εκεί και περιμένει. Οι δημιουργοί έχουν πρόσβαση σε πολλούς ακόμη χρήστες χωρίς να κάνουν τίποτα περισσότερο!!
